Vibiemme Domobar Super Choking on Second shot?

So yesterday was the first time I had people over, time to finally pull some shots when problems arised…

Second shot totally choked? Hmm I pull another, same thing, choked up the ying yang.

Realy strange, I temp surf if the machine has been idle for a while to stabilize the temp so it can’t be the temperature causing choking but then what is it?

    Long time since I made this post. The problem was basically me still adjusting to a HX E61 machine from the la Pavoni lever. I didn’t let the portafilter sit in the machine as it was warming up, hence after a shot it was heated up and the shot flow got restricted and finally choked. On the Pavoni, if you leave the PF out of the machine you get a shot or two more before it overheats.
